Well the latest about the possible backpackers at Amangwe ... I received word that the committee is interested, very much so, but have some concerns and questions.. the questions were primarily about time and readiness.. I understood the concerns and responded in the way I thought best. I am still awaiting a response from this last email.. ready to head up to Amangwe and start building something great.
In other news, I am kicking myself!! On Saturday I decided to go with Sam to see this guy Lawrence in Ashburton..it's only around a fifteen minute drive from the farm. He was going to look at some vehicles Lawrence repairs and sells.. Why would I need to take my camera I thought? Just another auto garage..nothing special.. Well what Sam failed to tell me is that the auto garage is located on a giant plot of land that hosts about ten different types of boks, giraffe, crocodiles and zebras. I was so disappointed. I have been to plenty of game reserves in the past, but this was truly beautiful..the greenery was great, the river was beautiful and sparkling with crocodiles resting on the sides.. the giraffes came climbing from the other side of a hill, being illuminated by the sun.. Lawrence, being the incredibly friendly guy that he is, invited me back any time. So I plan to head back soon, with my camera.
Take care.

Go back soon! It never fails, when you need a camera you don't have it. But as usual, you have made another new friend and get the chance to visit again. I cannot wait until you find out more about the backpackers. But...don't give up, even if this is not the time...press on, it will all work out (that's my motto) love you!! mom
